Price Tag for new UC Pres: $828,000

That's what the San Francisco Chronicle is reporting, as the UC Regents confirmed former University of Texas Chancellor Mark Yudof as president yesterday. Yudof will get a $591,000 salary, plus more than two hundred large in pension benefits, and the chance to live in the swanky Kensington president's mansion, which costs $300,000 a year to maintain. Thank God Yudof can finally get down to tackling that embarrassing compensation scandal.
